At some point, yeah. I do intend for the sword to "shapeshift" into different weapon types, a bow included, but that's somewhere in the future. The Nexus version of Artifacts of Ultima has a couple bows in it too. (AoU's gotten too big for the Workshop unfortunately.)

DEvasto, that is exactly the quality I was referring to. Thanks for the nod with explaining to jp what I meant. I haven't visited steam in a bit to correct the reference. But ya, I'd LOVE to get my hands on that and a decent quality version of Brinsingr and Zarrock. Those would rock. Thanks for the recongnition of my post.

To get and use the sword? No, the suggested level for the quest involving Morokei is 24, but that's just the suggested level, not a strict requirement. I assume you're referring to my character who what demoed the sword in the vid, that's just the level she was at at the time.

He's referring to a movie called Eragon, rather than swords wielded by Aragorn. There does seem to be a fair lack of swords from Eragon that're of Isilmeri quality, which is a shame because while I've never seen the movie it would be cool to bust out something like this: http://www.propstore.com/product-images/1016/174648.jpg

The fireballs/explosions are part of a script effect, so when you do power attacks it casts the proper spells according to the direction you're doing the power attack in. This means though script lag can cause delays and result in that script either executing late or not at all. It's also possible the tracing quest didn't even start, which would require starting it manually through the console.

I prefer to have it so you can see the sword directly, plus a chest would kind of mess the look of the Forge, especially if I put it on the rock the sword sits on. Would be kind of iffy just seeing a chest sitting there on a rock in the lava. Doesn't mean though I won't put things in chests if I feel it'd work, one of the swords I added to the Nexus version of Artifacts of Ultima is in a chest after all.

Anyhow, I'm using the YY Mystic Knight animation replacer, hence the way my character holds the sword. The mod's only on the Nexus tho.

Because I felt it'd be a decent place for it and wanted to put it behind a quest of some sort, so it could be worked towards rather than just taking it out of a chest plopped in the middle of Whiterun.

Hm. If the mod's active the sword's IDs should show up when you enter the command. If they're not, either the mod is actually inactive for whatever reason, or you're mistyping the command in some way, like running Infinity Sword together into one word or something like that.

The smelter is just a means to an end with the sword, really, since grip-switching without it would require making a script connected to an ability that would be used to switch out the 2 handed version with the 1 handed version and vis versa. Originally I used forges for that switching function, but you could easily abuse it to get mad smithing XP.
